MXA VIDEO: WE TEST THE 2022 YAMAHA YZ85 & YZ85 BIG WHEEL TWO-STROKES

Yamaha has a host of updates to the 2022 YZ85 and YZ85 Big Wheel two-strokes including a new aluminum sub-frame, new rear brake master cylinder, suspension updates, body work and more. MXA’s Assistant Editor Josh Mosiman breaks down both of these motorcycles in this video and describes what it was like on track riding them with feedback from test rider Storme Hawks. Yamaha is going all in on two-strokes still and we’re thrilled to see them continuing to put time and money into their mini bike lineup. Yamaha is the last of the Japanese manufacturers still producing a full line of two-stroke models to choose from. How does the Yamaha big wheel compare to the all new KX112 Supermini? Is it better than a KTM 85? We answer these questions and plenty more in this video.
